Abstract Details

2006, MARCH, University of Cincinnati, Design, Architecture, Art and Planning : Architecture (Master of).
Time, sequence, composition, and the sensory experience are common elements used in the creation of both music and architecture. To support the claim that the two art forms stem from the same spirit, the incorporation and similar treatment of common temporal aspects are analyzed in both written form and are demonstrated through design. Specific focus will be placed on the ideas of: sequence and composition as they pertain to the communication of an idea, both measurable and phenomenological definitions of time, and sensory experiences as they relate to understanding. Specifically, the cannons of the Suzuki Method, Sonata Form, Fibonacci Sequence, and Serialism are articulated in the design of the music education center. Ultimately, this study will develop the notion that architecture can become more experientially enriched by studying the perspective music has on these common features.
